Description

The present invention relates to a person detection system, and in particular to a person detection system that detects people within an image.

When a child gets separated from their guardian and becomes lost in a large entertainment facility or commercial facility, the child's whereabouts are discovered only when a staff member or another customer spots the crying child and guides them to a lost child center. However, because finding lost children relies on human intervention and visual inspection, there are problems with low accuracy and it takes time.

In addition, in order to reunite lost children with their guardians after they have been rescued, the current practice is to broadcast the characteristics of the lost child or rely on the guardians contacting the lost children center. However, it is difficult to obtain information from lost children (especially small children). Also, some entertainment facilities do not broadcast announcements, and there are cases where the means of alerting guardians are limited. This results in the problem that it takes even more time to reunite lost children with their guardians.

On the other hand, one method of detecting lost children is to have them carry a wireless communication device that detects their location or notifies them by sound. However, this requires the child or guardian to wear such a device at all times, which creates a burden for the child.

JP 2007-60528 A

Here, Patent Document 1 discloses a system for detecting lost children. In the technology disclosed in Patent Document 1, a registration camera is prepared in advance, and facial images of the chaperone and child are taken with the registration camera, and each facial image is associated with an email address and registered in a database. Then, facial images of people are detected from each image acquired by a surveillance camera, and it is determined whether or not there is a matching facial image. If a matching facial image is found, the child's position is identified from the position of the surveillance camera, and the chaperone is identified from the database.

However, with the technology of Patent Document 1 mentioned above, the leader and the child must be photographed in advance with a registration camera and registered, which is time-consuming. On the other hand, if the photograph is neglected, the lost child cannot be detected, which is a problem.

Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a person detection system that can appropriately detect lost children while reducing the amount of work required, which is the problem described above.

<Embodiment 1>
A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Fig. 1 to Fig. 7. Fig. 1 is a diagram for explaining the configuration of an information processing system in the first embodiment. Figs. 2 to 7 are diagrams for explaining the operation of the information processing system.

The information processing system (person detection system) of the present invention can be used primarily in large entertainment facilities and commercial facilities to detect lost children and reunite them with their guardians. However, the information processing system of the present invention is not limited to detecting lost children, and may be used to detect any person in any location.

[composition]
The information processing system 10 in this embodiment is composed of one or more information processing devices each having a calculation device and a storage device. As shown in Fig. 1, the information processing system 10 includes a feature extraction unit 11, a person extraction unit 12, an individual feature analysis unit 13, a behavior analysis unit 14, a group determination unit 15, a lost child identification unit 16, a guardian identification unit, and a person position identification unit 18, which are constructed by the calculation device executing a program. The information processing system 10 also includes a location information database (DB) 21 and a group database (DB) 22, which are formed in the storage device.

Furthermore, surveillance cameras 31 and cameras 32 can be connected to the information processing system 10. The surveillance cameras 31 are installed at multiple locations within the facility, take images of the locations where they are installed, and input the image information to the information processing system 10. At this time, the surveillance cameras 31 and location information corresponding to the locations where the surveillance cameras 31 are installed are associated and registered within the information processing system 10. In other words, the information processing system 10 can recognize the shooting location of the image information input from the surveillance cameras 31. For example, the surveillance cameras 31 are installed at the entrance to the facility or at landmark locations within the facility.

The camera 32 is a different camera from the surveillance camera 31, and is provided at a predetermined location within the facility. The camera 32 may be a digital camera or a camera equipped on a mobile phone, and is connected to the information processing system wirelessly or by wire, so that captured image information can be input to the information processing system 10.

The feature extraction unit 11, person extraction unit 12, and individual feature analysis unit 13 work together to function as a person extraction unit that extracts person information representing a person from image information captured by the surveillance camera 31. Specifically, the feature extraction unit 11 extracts feature information representing external features such as the outline of a person from the image information. The person extraction unit 12 automatically identifies a person from the extracted feature information. The individual feature analysis unit 13 performs an individual feature analysis of the age, clothing, build, etc. of each identified person, and stores this as person information for each person in the location information database 21 in association with the location information and shooting time of the surveillance camera 31. As a result, the location information database 21 stores the features of each person and the place and time at which the person appeared, and is updated as the person moves.

The behavior analysis unit 14 and group determination unit 15 cooperate to determine groups formed by multiple people, and function as a group determination unit that registers group information including information on multiple people determined to be a group in the group database 22. Specifically, the behavior analysis unit 14 analyzes the behavior of people from a video image to extract behavior information. Based on the behavior information, the group determination unit 15 performs behavior analysis of multiple people who are close to each other, such as the direction and timing of movement and whether they are talking, and automatically determines whether they are multiple people or a group. If it is determined to be a group, the information on the multiple people is registered in the group database 22 as one group information.

The group registration process by the group determination unit 15 is performed, for example, from video captured by a surveillance camera 31 installed near the entrance to the facility. However, the group registration process may be performed from video captured by any surveillance camera 31, and group information may be updated each time a group is determined. For example, if it is determined that a group originally consisting of four people has been split into groups of two, group information for each pair may be registered, and these group information may also be registered in association with each other.

The lost child identification unit 16 (first person identification unit) identifies a lost child (first person) based on the extracted person information and behavior information from the image information captured by the surveillance camera. For example, the lost child identification unit 16 extracts features such as contours from the images of the surveillance camera 31 installed at a certain location using the above-mentioned feature extraction unit 11, person extraction unit 12, and individual characteristic analysis unit 13 to automatically identify the person, and extracts only people of an age that is particularly likely to become lost based on the person information resulting from the individual characteristic analysis of each person's age, clothing, physique, etc. Furthermore, if the lost child identification unit 16 determines that a person may be lost based on information such as anxious expressions and behavior, whether they are acting alone (alone), etc., which is the result of the behavior analysis of the person performed in parallel by the above-mentioned behavior analysis unit 14, the lost child identification unit 16 identifies the person as lost.

The lost child identification unit 16 may also be configured to not determine that a child is lost depending on the installation location of the surveillance camera 31 and the situation. For example, in a place where a child is considered to be separated from their parents in exceptional cases, such as a daycare center, the child may not be identified as lost even if they are acting alone.

The person position identification unit 18 identifies and outputs the position of the lost child identified by the lost child identification unit 16 as described above, based on the position information of the surveillance camera 31 that captured the image of the lost child. The position information of the lost child is output, for example, to notify facility staff so that staff can be dispatched to the location of the lost child.

The guardian identification unit 17 (second person identification unit) identifies a guardian (second person) who belongs to the same group as the lost child, based on the personal information of the lost child identified by the lost child identification unit 16 and the group information registered in the group database 22. For example, the guardian identification unit 17 queries the group database 22 for characteristic information of the lost child, identifies the group to which the lost child belongs, and identifies a guardian who is believed to be an adult from the personal information of the identified group.

The person position identification unit 18 identifies the position of the guardian identified by the guardian identification unit 17 as described above by inquiring about the guardian's personal information in the position information database 21. The guardian's position information is output to notify facility staff, for example, so that staff can be dispatched to the guardian's position.

The above-mentioned feature extraction unit 11, person extraction unit 12, and individual feature analysis unit 13 work together to function as a person extraction unit that extracts personal information representing a person from image information captured by the camera 32. Specifically, a guardian searching for a lost child is captured by the camera 32, and from that image information, feature information such as the outline of the person is extracted in the same manner as described above, the person is automatically identified, and individual feature analysis is performed. The extracted personal information is then passed to the guardian identification unit 17.

The guardian identification unit 17 (third person identification unit) searches the group database 22 based on the personal information extracted from the image captured by the camera 32. Then, among the personal information included in the group information registered in the group database 22, a person whose personal information matches the personal information extracted from the image is identified as a guardian (third person). At this time, the group to which the identified guardian belongs is also identified.

The lost child identification unit 16 (fourth person identification unit) also identifies a lost child (fourth person) from within the group of guardians identified as described above, based on the person information included in the group information, and extracts the person information of the lost child. At this time, for example, the person information within the group is examined, and a person determined to be a child from the characteristic information, etc. is identified as a lost child, and the person information is extracted. Furthermore, the lost child identification unit 16 identifies the extracted lost child from an image captured by the surveillance camera 31. For example, the location information database 21 is queried for the extracted person information of the lost child, and a person with matching person information is identified as a lost child.

The person position identification unit 18 uses the position information database 21 to identify the position of the lost child from the person information of the lost child identified as described above. The position information of the lost child is output to notify facility staff, for example, so that staff can be dispatched to the location of the lost child.

[Action]
Next, the operation of the above-mentioned information processing system will be described in detail below: (1) group registration operation, (2) first lost child finding operation, and (3) second lost child finding operation.

(1) Group Registration Operation With reference to Figs. 2 and 3, the operation of determining customer position information and group information using the surveillance camera 31 in the facility and updating the database in real time will be described.

First, visitors are photographed by the surveillance cameras 31 at each entrance to the facility (step S1 in FIG. 2). Then, features such as contours are extracted from the images (step S11 in FIG. 3) to automatically identify the people (step S12 in FIG. 3). Furthermore, personal characteristics such as age, clothing, and build of each person are analyzed to extract personal information about each person. This personal information is linked to the position information of the surveillance cameras 31 and stored in the position information database 21 (step S13 in FIG. 3).

In addition, behavioral analysis is performed between people who are close to each other, such as the direction and timing of movement and whether they are talking (step S14 in Figure 3), and it is automatically determined whether there are multiple people or a group (step S2 in Figure 2, step S15 in Figure 3). For example, height and age recognition is used to determine a combination of a child and their guardian as a group. When multiple people are determined to be a group, group information including personal information for each person is registered in the group database 22 (step S3 in Figure 2). As a result, as will be described later, when a person in a certain group is the subject of a search, information on other people determined to be in the same group can be output.

All surveillance cameras 31 within the facility are constantly taking images in real time, extracting and analyzing people, and updating and registering group information including person information along with the location information of the surveillance cameras 31. This allows the location of individuals and groups to be updated appropriately. Furthermore, when it is determined that all members of a certain group have left the facility based on the images taken by the surveillance cameras 31 near each exit and analysis of the images, the group information is deleted from the group database 22.

At the same time, each time an image is captured by each surveillance camera 31, person information is extracted from the image as described above, and the location information of the person information is registered in the location information database 21. The location information database 21 is then updated as the person moves.

(2) First Operation for Finding a Lost Child With reference to Figs. 4 and 5, the operation for finding a lost child before receiving a call from the guardian will be described.

First, images are taken by the surveillance cameras 31 installed at various locations in the facility (step S21 in FIG. 4). Then, features such as contours are extracted from the images (step S31 in FIG. 5) to automatically identify the person (step S32 in FIG. 5). Furthermore, personal characteristics such as age, clothing, and physique of each person are analyzed (step S33 in FIG. 5) to extract only those people who are of an age where they may be particularly likely to get lost. In parallel, the behavior of the person is analyzed (step S34 in FIG. 5), and if it is determined that the person may be lost based on information such as anxious expressions and behavior, and whether they are acting alone, the person is identified as lost (step S22 in FIG. 4, step S35 in FIG. 5). At this time, the facility staff is notified so that staff can be dispatched to the site immediately (step S36 in FIG. 5). If the staff determines that the person is lost at the site, they will take the person into custody.

In addition to the above-mentioned processing, the group database 22 is queried for personal information of the identified lost child, and personal information of the guardian is identified (step S23 in FIG. 4, step S37 in FIG. 5). For example, from the personal information of the group to which the identified lost child belongs, a person who appears to be an adult is identified as the guardian. The location information database 21 is then queried for the guardian's personal information, and the guardian's current location is identified (step S24 in FIG. 4, step S38 in FIG. 5). At this time, by dispatching staff to the location, the guardian is informed that the lost child is being looked after (step S39 in FIG. 5), making it possible to quickly reunite the guardian and the lost child.

(3) Second Operation for Finding a Lost Child With reference to Figs. 6 and 7, the operation up to the protection of a lost child, which corresponds to a case where a parent inquires about a lost child, will be described.

When a guardian contacts the lost child center to inquire about a lost child, the guardian is first photographed by the camera 32 (step S41 in FIG. 6). Then, from the photographed image of the guardian, personal information about the guardian is extracted through feature extraction (step S51 in FIG. 7), person extraction (step S52 in FIG. 7), and individual feature extraction (step S53 in FIG. 7). Then, based on the guardian's personal information, the group database 22 is queried to identify lost children in the same group as the guardian (step S42 in FIG. 6, step S54 in FIG. 7), and personal information describing the characteristics of the lost children is obtained.

Next, the location information database 21 is queried for information about the lost child, and location information about the lost child is obtained (step S43 in FIG. 6, step S55 in FIG. 7). By informing staff of this, the staff can quickly protect the lost child on-site and introduce him/her to his/her guardian.

In this embodiment, an image of the guardian taken by the camera 32 is used to query the group database 22, which has the effect of preventing kidnapping by a false guardian who poses as a child and eliminating human error.

As described above, according to the present invention, the process from when a child gets lost to when it is detected and then when the child is reunited with their guardian can be carried out in a shorter time, more accurately, and with less human intervention. In addition, the system can be built using camera equipment installed on-site, without the need for mobile devices such as cell phones, which reduces the hassle for service providers and users.

In the above-mentioned information processing system, if it is difficult to detect lost children or groups due to issues with camera accuracy or behavior recognition accuracy, multiple candidates may be given as an answer rather than just one target. In this case, one correct answer may be selected visually from the multiple selected targets and given hints (information such as what percentage probability of match, similar faces but different clothing, etc.). Even when multiple candidates are given as an answer, if the probability of a match can be calculated during the matching process, sorting and outputting them in order of probability of match can help to match lost children with their guardians more quickly.

<Embodiment 2>
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Fig. 8. Fig. 8 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a human detection system in the second embodiment. Note that the human detection system in this embodiment shows an outline of the configuration of the information processing system described in the first embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 8, the human detection system 100 of this embodiment includes a human extraction unit 101 that extracts human information representing a human from image information captured by a surveillance camera 110;
a group determination unit 102 that extracts behavioral information representing the behavior of a person from the image information, determines groups formed by a plurality of people based on the behavioral information, and registers group information including the person information;
a first person identification unit that identifies a first person based on extracted person information and behavior information from image information captured by a surveillance camera;
a second person identification unit that identifies a second person belonging to the same group as the first person based on the person information and group information of the person identified as the first person from the image information captured by the surveillance camera;
a position identification unit that identifies the positions of the first person and the second person based on position information of a surveillance camera that captured image information in which the first person and the second person are identified;
It is equipped with:

Note that each of the above-mentioned components 101 to 105 may be constructed by a computing device equipped in an information processing device executing a program.

According to the person detection system configured as above, first, person information and behavior information are extracted from image information captured by a surveillance camera, and group information consisting of multiple people is automatically registered from the person information and behavior information. Therefore, the group is always registered without any effort on the part of the user. After that, when a first person (e.g., a lost child) is identified based on the person information and behavior information extracted from image information captured by surveillance cameras in various locations, a second person (e.g., a guardian) of the group to which the first person belongs is identified from the person information and group information of the first person. Then, the positions of the first person and the second person can be identified by using the position information of the surveillance cameras that captured the first person and the second person. As a result, there is no need for preparations such as taking pictures with a registration camera in advance, and people can be detected appropriately while reducing the user's efforts.

In addition to the above configuration, the person extraction unit extracts personal information of a person from image information of the person captured by a camera other than the surveillance camera. The person detection system further includes a third person identification unit that identifies a third person from group information based on the personal information of the person extracted from image information captured by a camera other than the surveillance camera, and a fourth person identification unit that identifies a fourth person belonging to the same group as the identified third person based on the personal information of the person identified as the third person and the group information, and identifies the fourth person based on the personal information extracted from the image information captured by the surveillance camera. Furthermore, the position identification unit identifies the position of the fourth person based on position information of the surveillance camera that captured the image information in which the fourth person is identified.

According to the above configuration, first, a third person (e.g., a guardian) is photographed with a camera other than the surveillance camera, and the third person in the group information is identified from the person information extracted from the image information. Then, a fourth person (e.g., a lost child) who belongs to the same group as the third person is identified from the group information, and the person information of the fourth person is obtained. The fourth person is then identified from the image information captured by the surveillance camera, and his/her position can be determined. In this way, even if the third person is searching for the fourth person, the person can be detected appropriately.
